Wetlands currently owned and<br />
managed by governmental entities<br />
and the private sector should be<br />
preserved as natural habitats but<br />
should receive sufficient<br />
management action to maximize<br />
wildlife usage and native plant<br />
communities. (2.3.4.2)<br />

Counties, cities and villages<br />
should adopt their own legislation<br />
following the federal definitions<br />
and guidelines as outlined in<br />
Section 404 of the <strong>Clean</strong> Water<br />
Act. (2.3.4.2)<br />
The loss of wetlands to real estate<br />
development activities should be<br />
discouraged by governmental<br />
agencies involved in the permit<br />
review process. (2.3.4.2)<br />
Should development activities<br />
adversely affect wetlands,<br />
mitigation projects should be<br />
required which actually replace<br />
lost acreage with high quality,<br />
man-made wetland areas.<br />
(2.3.4.2)<br />
Building on the National Wetlands<br />
Inventory Maps, USFWS, local<br />
governments should prepare a<br />
comprehensive plan and maps<br />
that identify wetlands and<br />
floodplains, followed by adoption<br />
of prohibition on development<br />
within identified areas. (2.3.4.2)<br />
